I can't remember when I first used it with M, but she was a little bit older.</p> <p>I'd like to use it soon, so I can have M in the stroller! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1026223 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 12:07:23 +0000 mrsjazz 1026223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sarbear: i wore the carrier higher up near my belly button and that helped. I just couldn't wear her for too long or my back and the incision area would hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025780 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 01:32:33 +0000 GrapeCrush 1025780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: How was it with your csection, if you don't mind me asking? I feel great after mine, but I think I'm most nervous to use it too soon after it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025686 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 23:28:17 +0000 mrsjazz 1025686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tysonja: We tucked her legs in when she was a newborn. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025684 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 23:26:33 +0000 Giraffe 1025684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tysonja: no, we always let his legs dangle and he didn't mind at all! He was born in late July, so it seemed important to keep him as cool as possible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025607 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 22:29:11 +0000 Foodnerd81 1025607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm curious about how it works with a little one too! I've only used the moby but I'm looking forward to using the beco- and Dh will use that one too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025593 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 22:18:46 +0000 tysonja 1025593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oohh! i can't wait to give it a try a bit earlier with #2! :) did you guys tuck their legs inside when wearing them at that age/size? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025547 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 21:47:27 +0000 Andrea 1025547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used it within the first few weeks and she was fine. But she was 9 lbs plus at birth so I never thought she was little! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025529 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 21:40:47 +0000 mrsjazz 1025529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sarbear: I took LO to her first doctor's appointment in the Beco Gemini when she was 7 days old and only a few ounces heavier than your LO. It was totally fine. She was comfortable and slept most of the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025491 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 21:21:51 +0000 Giraffe 1025491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used ours right away and our son loved it (and there was very little else that he loved in those early, colicky days...) He was 8.5 pounds when he was born, though, so a bit bigger than your LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025215 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 19:00:06 +0000 tysonja 1025215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i think we waited until he was around just around 3 months? about 13lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beco-gemini-with-a-newborn#post-1025206 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 18:56:11 +0000 GrapeCrush 1025206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did you start using your Beco Gemini with your LO? DD is 2 weeks old and 7.5lbs, so she's big enough for it, but she just seems so little still, that I'm nervous to use it with her. Did you use it when you LO was a newborn? </p>
